I make people THAT hate photos LOVE PHOTOS
Organising your wedding, and choosing your wedding photographer is a big deal for every couple, there are approximately 10 gazillion wedding photographers out there, and finding “the one” can be harder than finding the one you’re gonna marry.
Am I the one for you?
My relaxed style of wedding photography suits people who hate being in front of the camera. I don’t take myself too seriously, and work well with couples who laugh a lot and who aren’t taking the whole wedding thing too seriously either. I get the most joy from couples reviewing their wedding day through their wedding photos. I’m drawn to happy/smiling faces and I love to capture the pure joy of a wedding day.
from one introvert to another

RELAXED Approach
I spend most of the day capturing all the moments I wouldn’t want you to miss. The photos I gather are candid and storytelling. Saying “cheeeeeese” isn’t my thing, your photos will be relaxed and non-stressy.
The Couple portraits are likely the bit you are worrying about the most, but don’t stress! I’ve done this plenty of times and I’m here to talk you through it. I promise you will love the photos of just the 2 of you together.
sit back, relax, and let the memories roll.

LIFE EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER
I capture emotions, love and charisma that tell stories with most of my time spent on wedding photography in Essex and London and surrounding areas.
Other than weddings I shoot relaxed couple/family portraits, and life events like birthdays, stags & hen dos.
I love working with people who shy away from the camera, I relax my clients, and offer them photos to adore for the rest of time.
ooooh multi-discipline!
put your best foot forward for photos that stand the test of time
WORD ON THE STREET
As a wedding photographer, you know when you’re doing something great when you get messages like this.
After the full-on 12-14 hour days of shooting, and the weeks of editing the photos. Getting these through makes my heart melt. 🧡
let's make memories
A relative recommended Martin to us to take pictures at our amazing dad’s funeral. We wanted pictures which weren’t distasteful and he captured the day exactly as we had hoped. Martin was professional and extremely respectful of the occasion and was totally discrete. He recently sent us a file containing the images he took and we couldn’t be happier with his work. If you are looking for a competent, reliable and trustworthy photographer to capture your special occasion, we highly recommend him because he delivers 100%, and will definitely be using him again, hopefully for a more happy occasion next time

I arranged for Martin to attend a birthday lunch that was to be held in Battersea on the Thames, he came when I asked him, which I thought would be at the end of the meal. Of course, we had not even ordered the meal when he arrived. Martin waited until we ordered and then started to take natural pictures of the family and friends who had come to celebrate my birthday.
I was unaware that he had been ill for a few days but still attended.
The photos were brilliant, he sent copies to us and also advised me that he saves them in multiple places so he will not lose them. He sent them in different formats to me to assist me in saving them.

We just wanted to share that everyone, without fail, has remarked on how great all the pictures are. We’re really blown away by them, and are struggling to select the ones to have framed etc!! Thanks so much, Martin!

Martin is an amazing patient photographer and is really gifted. Not only does he capture you in the right light but you get a sense of the tone and temperament of the person also.
